    Default 5/10- how do i get value?

    Villain is unknown and 100BB deep. This is stars so player pool is relatively small regular-wise. so its kind of odd to see a full-buy unknown

    anyways have been at the table 20 hands or so and villain hasnt done anything crazy

    villain opens to 35 otb i repop to 130 in the BB with TsTh

    flop QsJs x... whats my line and why?

    and describe hypothetical turn play if necessary

    theres a couple differences
    in zooks hand board was 2 flush and he had no flush card and im not sure if it was blind vs btn

    in this hand i have a FD, its 3 sooted, and its BB vs BTN

    fwiw

    ok i didnt want to start off being specific but here goes

    1. we beat most of his range 22-AA AT+ some SCs,

    2. We are going ot be a big dog a lot of the time if we get allin on the flop and if we bet/fold we are also going to be incorrectly folding a fair % of the time.

    so should we C/F, B/F, B/C, C/R, C/C or what?

    and if we check, should villains bet sizing influence our decision...?

    I think we should c/f given his range. If i have 22-99 on this board im not betting because i have sd value. Meaning yeah he'll bet AT or AK but it just doesnt seem like enough given the fact we really can't call a two barrel.

    I dont think bet sizing should influence our decision unless you have a strong read on opp.

    i agree actually that c/f seems best against an unknown...

    anyone disagree?

    How were we supposed to know it was 3 sooted?

    I also think we need to B/F this flop so that 22-99, SCs and AT, AK aren't getting a free card and won't try to steal. As you said, we are ahead of most of his range, so charge the draws. The cbet will also work as a blocking bet and you will often get to see the river free against AJ and AQ.

    I think it's very close between B/F and C/F though, although if we C/F the flop, we can't C/F turn, that's just too weak. So my order of preference is:
    1. B/F + C/F
    2. C/F + B/F
    3. C/F + C/C
